knowing by faith

Despite its comparative simplicity, a homily by Thomas
stretches the listener’s powers of understanding. It goes without saying
that he wants people to
be moved to a greater love of God, but he wants people above all to think about the mysteries of
faith—to think clearly and deeply, so as to arrive at a better grasp of the meaning of the feast at
hand, or of a scriptural passage under consideration.
